PSA & PDT:Industry Leading Race to the Bottom
1 Attachment(s)
Interesting how the only one that chose not to stand united with the rest of the regional industry at the beginning of this year was the Piedmont MEC. Now it makes sense.
Willfully perpetuating the pilots competing with pilots for aircraft scenario. Willfully lowering the longterm regional pilot compensation at ALL airlines in exchange for a short cut for a few. Willfully putting pilots at other carriers in a position of losing their jobs and seniority for a quicker upgrade or job at mainline. YOU ALL COMPLAIN ABOUT GREED AT THE EXECUTIVE LEVEL, LOOK IN THE MIRROR! PSA & Piedmont are so d%mn greedy and entitled they chose to be the only ones unwilling to stop the whipsaw. Taking paycuts just for growth, at AE's (and whole industry's) expense? All you hear is selfish justification from them, but the fact remains that their YES votes hurt, and will damage in the future, a lot of individuals and families for many years to come. Thanks once more for degrading our profession when we were on the cusp of reversing this race to the bottom. You realize why AMR is going to continue to separate Piedmont and PSA? Don't be fooled by the different type argument. Whipsaw 101 of managing labor costs. |
Wow, PDT voting hasn't even been completed yet and you are already calling them a bottom feeder leading the race to the bottom. WHEN all these years they have IN FACT lead this industry hence the reason why they are the size they are with planes expiring.
They should vote no to protect YOUR career while you bad mouth them before they even vote? You have some balls kid, I suggest you fill out a PDT application because they are going to put you out of business with that mouth |

I dont work at AE. My job is not in jeopardy, and neither is PDTs, nor was PSAs. I appreciate PDTs history, but should you lower the bar in 2014 of all times for jets, I stand by my claims of greed and absolute narcissism. Win new flying without having to lower the bar, that's all everyone is saying. Should you all vote NO, I will happily apologize to PDT pilots.

Terrible day for Envoy pilots but it proves an unfortunate point that Envoy's honorable gamble was the incorrect stance. AAG has its WO carriers beat and they know it. |

In light of the huge blow to Envoy yesterday how can you possibly in any way think this is a true statement?
